      Voorbeeldzinnen

      1. What a revelation!
      2. Revelation is necessarily out of the question with respect to those books.
      3. Revelation cannot be applied to the relating of facts by the persons who saw them done, nor to the relating or recording of any discourse or conversation by those who heard it.
      4. Abu al-Husayn ibn al-Rawandi, already in the ninth century, held that reason is man's exclusive guide to truth, a quest in which revelation is of no help.
